Fairs & Festivals
in India
Though India is often and justly described as a land of many religions and
innumerable languages, it might well be described as a land of festivals
as well. One conventional authority, the Encyclopedia Brittanica, rather
unabashedly and with the customary cavalier attitude with which India can
be treated, says of Hindu festivals that these arecombinations of religious
ceremonies, semi-ritual spectacles, worship, prayer, lustrations, processions
(to set something sacred in motion and to extend its power throughout a
certain region), music, dances (which by their rhythm have a compelling
force), magical acts -- participants throw fertilizing water or, during
the Holi festival, coloured powder at each other -- eating, drinking, lovemaking,
licentiousness, feeding the poor, and other activities of a religious or
traditional character.
Forts & Palaces
in India
When you go on a cultural tour of a country, it isnt just trinkets,
souvenirs, photographs and memories you should be taking back with you,
but also a deeper understanding of its people, their faiths, traditions
and superstitions, and if possible, the jealously guarded recipe of their
gourmet dish! For only then will you have had a truly unique experience
that is unmatchable and adds to your range of experiences to make you a
richer person.
Indian Culture
The Indian culture has enjoyed an international reputation for the brass
and bell metal work. The technology of metalworking had been entrenched
in the Indian Culture by 2500 B.C. This technology then was manifested in
myriad exquisite and sturdy images and icons. These images and icons are
still found in temples. They are still being produced in household niches
such as lamps, platters and other items required for acts of worship. The
metals being used for these products are mostly gold, silver, copper, brass,
bronze, and other mixed metals and alloys.
